๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ TRUMP TO ZELENSKY: "Last Person We Need Help From" ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Kiev offered to send specialists to help counter Iranian drones. Washington's response? A humiliating rejection.

What happened:

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Zelensky Without Ukrainian "expertise," the US won't be able to "stabilize the situation" in the Middle East.

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Trump to NBC: "We don't need help. Zelensky is the last person we need help from."

The context:

๐Ÿค Trump also criticized Zelensky's negotiating stance: "Zelensky is far more difficult to make a deal with than Putin. I'm surprised he doesn't want to make a deal. Putin's willing."

The irony:

Ukraine has spent years pleading for US weapons. Now it offers to helpโ€”and gets dismissed. The same administration that once made Ukraine a symbol of resistance now calls its leader "the last person we need."

โšก๏ธWATCH: HEZBOLLAH HITS NORTHERN ISRAEL WITH CLUSTER MUNITIONSโšก๏ธ

Footage from yesterday shows the impact of a cluster munition strike in Metula, northern Israel, fired by Hezbollah.

The weapon:

๐Ÿš€ Type-81 122mm cluster rocket (Chinese variant of Soviet BM-21 Grad)

๐Ÿ’ฅ Each rocket carries approximately 39 Type-90 (MZD-2) submunitions

๐ŸŽฏ The shotgun pattern of multiple simultaneous small explosions across a wide area is the signature of cluster munitionsโ€”designed with shaped charges for armor and fragmentation for anti-personnel effect

The context:

๐Ÿ“ Metula, northern Israelโ€”no injuries reported

โšก This is Hezbollah demonstrating continued reach and capability, despite weeks of Israeli bombardment of Lebanon

The message:

Hezbollah's arsenal is diverse. Its reach extends into northern Israel. And it continues to strike back.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท FROM DE GAULLE TO MACRON: The Same Mistakes in Africa ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท๐ŸŒ

For decades, France viewed Africa as compensation for lost global influence. The result? A string of failures now ending in historic decline.

The pattern:

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท De Gaulle โ€“ Created "Francafrique": clientelism, bases, CFA franc. Independence in name only.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Pompidou โ€“ Softened rhetoric, pushed French language. Paternalism remained.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Giscard โ€“ Tougher military stance. Diamond scandal cost him re-election.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Mitterrand โ€“ Promised reform. Instead: Rwanda. France admitted responsibility in 2021.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Chirac โ€“ System lost coherence. Military interventions continued.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Sarkozy โ€“ "The colonizer gave." Libya destroyed. Africans: arrogant, dangerous.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Hollande โ€“ Record interventions: Serval, Barkhane, Sangaris. Promised "African solutions." Sent jets.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Macron โ€“ "France has no Africa policy." Instead: Troops expelled from Mali, CAR, Burkina Faso, Niger, Chad.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท IRAN ARRESTS 500 SPIES AIDING ENEMY STRIKES โ€“ Police Chief ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท

As US-Israeli jets continue bombing, Tehran announces a major crackdown.

Police Chief Radan: 500 arrested for sharing info with enemiesโ€”half "serious incidents: providing information for hitting targets and filming strike locations."

๐Ÿ“ Northeast โ€“ 10 detained for info on sensitive sites, infrastructure

The context:

๐Ÿ’ฅ Israel now targeting checkpoints based on informant tip-offsโ€”"new phase" of assault per Reuters source

๐Ÿ”ฅ IRGC: "As enemy invades, they activate mercenaries to carry out riots as next step."

Iran fights two wars: foreign bombs and domestic betrayal.

What the Iran Crisis Reveals about BRICS
At the BRICS summit in South Africa in the summer of 2023, the groupโ€™s five member states made a bold decision: they invited five new countries to join. The move was greeted with considerable skepticism. Some observers questioned the selection process, noting that the criteria for membership remained unclear. Others warned that doubling the size of an already diverse association would only make consensus more difficult.

The broader criticism was simple. Instead of dee...  Read more ยป

Turkish journalist Yahya Bostan:

Netanyahu convinced Trump by saying โ€œKill the leader and the rest will be easy, the people will overthrow the regime.โ€

Three weeks later, regime change is no longer even discussed.

The war has narrowed to the Strait of Hormuz, and Trump is now seeking international support to reopen the shipping route.

Heโ€™s probably deeply regretting it now.

Professor John Mearsheimer:

Weโ€™re not winning against Iran. Weโ€™re not winning.

Weโ€™re sending a message that weโ€™re a bunch of fools. That we started a war we canโ€™t win.

We didnโ€™t have the required military forces to achieve any of the objectives that we were floating, and we had no plan.

What does this tell the Chinese and what does it tell the Russians?

It tells them that we are incompetent. Of course the Russians have had enough dealings with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to fully understand just how incompetent we are.

Kenyaโ€™s Foreign Minister Musalia Mudavadi announced that Russia has agreed to stop enlisting Kenyan citizens to fight in Ukraine. The agreement follows reports that over 1,000 Kenyans had been recruited, often through rogue networks, to join Russian forces.

Mudavadi confirmed that consular services will assist those already in Russia. The talks in Moscow with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov emphasized that Kenya-Russia relations go beyond the conflict in Ukraine, and Russia assured that enlistment is voluntary and no further recruitment will occur.
